In school-work transition, sleep changes may be jarring

Past studies have found that shifting sleep patterns can affect performance and mental health for adults and teens. The questions addressed employment status, current sleep habits and perceived sleep quality, symptoms of depressed mood and aspects of quality of life. Students tended to go to bed later and wake up later with each successive year of college, but switched to an “advanced sleep phase” with earlier wake up times after graduation. New graduates who reported going to bed earlier than they had one year earlier were more likely to be experiencing symptoms of depressed mood and poor sleep quality than others who had gone to bed earlier the previous year as well as the current year.
